LAND COSTS City Centre Royal London House, Armada Way. Size: 521sq ft Price/Rent: Leasehold £20,000 per annum. City Centre 50, Drake Circus. Size422sq ft Price/Rent: Leasehold £60,000 per annum. Diagram of land ownership in city centre Price/Rent: Leasehold £60,000 per annum.

Council owns all of the West End Property. Rents range from around 5000pa to 20000pa, depending on the size of the unit. Frankfort Gate and opposite the Market on Cornwall Street,

• wned by Plymouth Community Homes, rents similar to

West End. Rest of the City Centre owned by private companies but buildings are sited on ground owned by City Council. Drake Circus is owned by a private company and provides no direct money to Plymouth City Council.

HIGH DENSITY The 3D map shows us that there is little variation in heights throughout the city. The centre itself is very low density when we look at the ratio of building to void space. The commercial centre feels enclosed by the lack of punctuation through the ring road. The map also shoes just how much the road system dominated and divides the city as a whole (Plymouth Briefing Document, University of Plymouth School of Architecture & Design, Master

• f Architecture , 2010 – 2011).

PLYMOUTH CITY POTENTIAL

• Small Scale city
• Low Density – Lots of space for development
• Coastal Location
• Strong Wind
• Strong University Presence

IMPLEMENTATION TO PLYMOUTH – LESSONS FROM HAMMARSBY

• Utilisation of the University Research

Department to advance and become an exemplary urban Model of Renewable Energy Generation

• Maximise the potential of the power of natural

Climatic conditions and location to generate energy

• Create waterside publically accessible
• Implementation of Best Practice Recycling
• Create waterside publically accessible

habitats to promote biodiversity and to aid flood risk whilst Improve social interaction

• Establish an eco – cycle which considers the

reuse of waste To be used as part of a cohesive holistic approach to energy Production, heating and cooling systems and waste management
